Answer 1

As we have more communication with foreigners, we should pay more attention to the differences in our body language.

    As we see from the table, many differences exist between Chinese and American body language. For example, there are more touching gestures in China than in America. Women or girls in China often walk hand-in-hand, which is very rare in America. Also, Americans think it rude to put out one’s tongue, while the Chinese often use this gesture when they are embarrassed. Furthermore, Chinese people will pat children on the head if they like them, while the Americans do so to offer encouragement or comfort.

    In a word, only by fully understanding all the differences in body language can we expect to achieve proper communication.
